Differences between Institutionalized and Home-reared Children in Social Skills and Affective Perspective Taking

This study compared the social skills and affective perspective taking of institutionalized and home-reared children. The subjects were 59 institutionalized and 60 home-reared children in Seoul. Results showed that institutionalized children were lower in cooperation, self-assertion and self-control than home-reared children. Institutionalized children were lower in delight, sadness, fear, and anger than home-reared children. As skills in self-control increased, the level of affective perspective taking about fear increased.
